Swaying palm trees, Cancun’s turquoise waters, and white-sand beaches make for the perfect getaway. But when that getaway is a destination wedding, it’s an even more perfect backdrop for precious memories. That’s why when Sunny and Rashi chose to have their destination wedding at Planet Hollywood Cancun, it looked and felt like nothing short of a fairy tale come to life.
From the moment they exchanged their vows at this breathtaking beachfront venue, it was evident that their journey together was destined for greatness.
Read on to learn the details of this picturesque South Asian destination wedding from the awe-inspiring decor to the talented vendors who brought their dreams to reality. You’ll get key takeaways you can use as you think about your wedding week.
Rashi and Sunny’s first big wedding decision was to settle on where they’d like to get married. They turned to us to help and we spent time with them to fully understand their wants and needs. It’s important to us that we get a good idea of their vision for their wedding and how they want their guests to feel.
Through our conversations, we suggested Cancun as the ideal location as it is close to many attractions, is easy to fly to from many places and it offers visitors many things to do. Next, we took them through our signature Resort Match Finder process which provided a customized selection of resorts that are experienced in South Asian weddings. It was clear that Planet Hollywood Cancun would be perfect.
From there, we managed the booking process for them and their guests so that they could free up their time to focus on other pressing wedding matters. As you think about a destination wedding, it’s crucial to work with a travel agency like ours who is well-versed in booking South Asian destination weddings in Mexico and the Caribbean.
Because of our years of experience, we have formed partnerships with the resorts in these locations. Therefore, we are often able to pass on perks and deals to our couples that save them money while having a wedding that fits their unique vision.
Preeti Exclusive Events
worked with our amazing clients, paying special attention to the details they wanted for their dream wedding. What we love about Preeti is that her clients become like family and she works tirelessly to ensure every event is executed flawlessly.
Another strength that Preeti offers her clients is her creativity. From curating the intricate décor that seamlessly blended traditional elements with contemporary elegance to flawlessly coordinating every aspect of the event, Preeti ensured that every detail was perfect. Her dedication and expertise in orchestrating grand celebrations in exotic destinations like Cancun shone through, making Rashi and Sunny’s wedding a seamless and unforgettable experience for the couple and their guests.
Having wedding photographs and videos that highlight all of the excitement and emotion of your wedding week means hiring teams that are truly pros in their industry. That’s why Rashi and Sunny turned to P. Taufiq Photography and Romanza Wedding Photography.
Pervez of P. Taufiq is a master at having an eye for when to snap the shutter to capture moments that are priceless. His work is full of energy and vibrance and he creates wedding albums that clients are proud to share with friends and family.
The Romanza team is equally talented. They blend together wedding moments into breath-taking wedding films that are unique to each client. Whether you know the couple or not, one look at his films will make you feel as if you do.
As you select your wedding videographer and photographer, ask to see examples of weddings that will be as large as yours. For the photographer, get a clear answer on how many photos you can generally expect to receive.
For the videographer, ask about their editing process and how long they take to get the final product to you. Some offer same-day edits so you are able to watch your highlight video during your reception.
Getting wedding ready means having the right glam team who knows how to bring out your natural beauty. That’s why Rashi worked with Crispin Beauty and Loto Mehndi to create stunning looks for her wedding events. She also hired Alex Corbanezi for her bridal party’s hair and makeup. We are always happy to recommend these teams as they have an abundance of experience with South Asian weddings.
The Crispin Beauty team creates especially glamorous looks for brides that make them feel like models. And the Alex Corbanezi team is especially well-trained to create chic looks that complement South Asian skin tones perfectly.
For the mehndi, Loto Mehndi spent time working with Rashi to co-create a design that best reflects her style. They are skilled at creating looks that are works of art on a bride’s skin. As you create a glam team for your wedding, ask to speak to their most recent clients. You want to get a sense for how well they handled wedding timeliness and what it was like to work with them.
To create the right atmosphere, Gama Group, Tulipania and Encore (for the audio visual), made the wedding events, especially the reception, a remarkable experience for the guests. Through the perfect blend of décor by Gama, lush flowers by Tulipania and perfect lighting and audio by Encore, Rashi and Sunny’s wedding honored the guests with surroundings that were charming and elegant.
Each of these teams always brings professionalism and dedication to each wedding they do and they pay attention to their client’s wishes to make their wedding a success. As you pick your vendors for décor, ask them about how much experience they have at the resort you have picked.
The entertainment for Rashi and Sunny’s wedding had the guests dancing and enjoying every moment thanks to the hard work of DJ Ambition, Drums in Paradise and PyrotechMX.
DJ Ambition works seamlessly with couples and wedding planners, especially Preeti Exclusive, to ensure the wedding celebrations are exciting for guests. He is known for his MC and DJ skills where he expertly blends modern and classic melodies that appeal to guests of all ages.
Drums in Paradise is a favorite among our brides and grooms for their incredible fire dancer shows and drums shows. Their energy and skills take wedding receptions and baraats to new levels. Pyrotech offers beautiful sparks that couples especially like to have set off during their first dance. This effect always pleases crowds!
As you plan your entertainment needs, consider working with teams that have worked with your other vendors before. It will ensure a smoother experience for you, your guests and the vendors.
